Postanak 11

Studie

   

1 A beše na celoj zemlji jedan jezik i jednake reči.

2 A kad otidoše od istoka, nađoše ravnicu u zemlji senarskoj, i naseliše se onde.

3 Pa rekoše među sobom: Hajde da pravimo ploče i da ih u vatri pečemo. I behu im opeke mesto kamena i smola zemljana mesto kreča.

4 Posle rekoše: Hajde da sazidamo grad i kulu, kojoj će vrh biti do neba, da stečemo sebi ime, da se ne bismo rasejali po zemlji.

5 A Gospod siđe da vidi grad i kulu, što zidahu sinovi čovečiji.

6 I reče Gospod: Gle, narod jedan, i jedan jezik u svih, i to počeše raditi, i neće im smetati ništa da ne urade šta su naumili.

7 Hajde da siđemo, i da im pometemo jezik, da ne razumeju jedan drugog šta govore.

8 Tako ih Gospod rasu odande po svoj zemlji, te ne sazidaše grada.

9 Zato se prozva Vavilon, jer onde pomete Gospod jezik cele zemlje, i odande ih rasu Gospod po svoj zemlji.

10 Ovo je pleme Simovo: beše Simu sto godina, kad rodi Arfaksada, druge godine posle potopa.

11 A rodiv Arfaksada požive Sim pet stotina godina, rađajući sinove i kćeri.

12 A Arfaksad požive trideset i pet godina, i rodi Salu;

13 A rodiv Salu požive Arfaksad četiri stotine i tri godine, rađajući sinove i kćeri.

14 A Sala požive trideset godina, i rodi Evera;

15 A rodiv Evera požive Sala četiri stotine i tri godine, rađajući sinove i kćeri.

16 A Ever požive trideset i četiri godine, i rodi Faleka;

17 A rodiv Faleka požive Ever četiri stotine i trideset godina, rađajući sinove i kćeri.

18 A Falek požive trideset godina, i rodi Ragava;

19 A rodiv Ragava požive Falek dvesta i devet godina, rađajući sinove i kćeri.

20 A Ragav požive trideset i dve godine, i rodi Seruha;

21 A rodiv Seruha požive Ragav dvesta i sedam godina, rađajući sinove i kćeri.

22 A Seruh požive trideset godina, i rodi Nahora;

23 A rodiv Nahora požive Seruh dvesta godina, rađajući sinove i kćeri.

24 A Nahor požive dvadeset i devet godina, i rodi Taru;

25 A rodiv Taru požive Nahor sto i devetnaest godina, rađajući sinove i kćeri.

26 A Tara požive sedamdeset godina, i rodi Avrama, Nahora i Arana.

27 A ovo je pleme Tarino: Tara rodi Avrama, Nahora i Arana; a Aran rodi Lota.

28 I umre Aran pre Tare oca svog na postojbini svojoj, u Uru haldejskom.

29 I oženi se Avram i Nahor, i ženi Avramovoj beše ime Sara a ženi Nahorovoj ime Melha, kći Arama oca Melhe i Jeshe.

30 A Sara beše nerotkinja, i ne imaše poroda.

31 I uze Tara sina svog Avrama i Lota sina Aronovog, unuka svog, i Saru snahu svoju, ženu Avrama sina svog; i pođoše zajedno iz Ura haldejskog da idu u zemlju hanansku, i dođoše do Harana, i onde se nastaniše.

32 I požive Tara svega dvesta i pet godina; i umre Tara u Haranu.

Apocalypse Explained # 751

/ 1232  
  

751. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them.- That this signifies the salvation and consequent joy of those who become spiritual by the reception of Divine Truth, is evident from the signification of rejoicing, as denoting joy on account of salvation; from the signification of the heavens, as denoting those who are spiritual (concerning which we shall speak presently); and from the signification of ye that dwell, as denoting those who live, here spiritually. That to dwell signifies to live, may be seen above (n. 133, 479, 662). The heavens signify those who are spiritual, because all who are in the heavens are spiritual, and because men who have become spiritual are also in the heavens, although they are in the world as to the body; therefore ye that dwell in the heavens means not only angels, but also men, for every man with whom the interior mind, which is called the spiritual mind, has been opened, is in the heavens, indeed, he also sometimes appears amongst the angels there. That this is so, has not been known in the world up to the present time. It must therefore be understood, that man as to his spirit is among spirits and angels, and indeed in that society of them into which he is to come after death. The reason of this is that the spiritual mind of man is formed exactly according to the image of heaven, and in such a way that it is a heaven in least form; consequently that mind, although still in the body, must nevertheless be where its form is. But this has been more fully dealt with in Heaven and Hell 51-58), where it is shown that every angel, and also every man as to his interiors, if he be spiritual, is a heaven in its least form, corresponding to heaven in its greatest form. For this reason where the Word treats of the creation of heaven and earth, the internal and external church is in general meant, and, in particular, the internal and external man, that is the spiritual and natural man. From these things it is evident that the heavens and those that dwell in them signify all who are there, and also those men who are becoming spiritual by the reception of Divine Truth in doctrine and life.

7 I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of those who seek their life: and their dead bodies will I give to be food for the birds of the sky, and for the animals of the earth.
